FAQs

How do Splash About Incontinence Swim Shorts work?

They are made from a single layer of neoprene with specialist ribbing at the waistband and thighs designed to contain solid waste. They are worn under regular swimwear for discreet protection.

Can these be worn on their own?

No, these shorts are designed to be worn discreetly under regular swimwear such as swim trunks or swimsuits for maximum effectiveness and a natural appearance.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by Splash About. The shorts should fit snugly around the waist and thighs without being uncomfortably tight. A snug fit is crucial for effective leak protection.

Are these suitable for faecal incontinence only?

Yes, these shorts are specifically designed for faecal incontinence. They are not designed to contain urine.

How do I clean and care for the shorts?

Rinse in cold, fresh water after each use. Hand wash with a mild detergent and air dry away from direct sunlight. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and tumble drying.

What is the material of the shorts?

The shorts are made from a single layer of neoprene.

Can my child wear regular swim shorts over these?

Yes, that is the intended use. The shorts are designed to be discreet and worn under regular swimwear.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too loose or are slipping down.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The shorts should fit snugly around the waist and thighs. Try a smaller size if slippage occurs.

Experiencing minor leaks.

Check that the ribbing around the waistband and thighs is properly positioned and creating a seal. Ensure the shorts are fitting snugly overall. Re-evaluate sizing if the issue persists.

Material feels stiff or less flexible.

This can happen if the shorts are not rinsed properly after use or are exposed to prolonged direct sunlight when drying. Rinse thoroughly in cold water and air dry as per care instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These incontinence swim shorts are designed for immediate use without complex setup. Simply ensure the child is wearing them correctly before entering the water, ensuring a snug fit around the waist and thighs. They are compatible with most standard swimwear, such as swim trunks or swimsuits, which should be worn over the shorts. Care instructions are straightforward: rinse the shorts in cold, fresh water after each use to remove any chlorine or salt. For cleaning, hand wash gently with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the neoprene material. Do not tumble dry; instead, hang the shorts to air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve their integrity and elasticity. Proper care will ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the product.
